The Rejected Mate's Revenge

Chapter 5

Syria's POV.

I didn't think it was going to be that easy to seduce the alpha. A satisfying smile crept on my face, as I looked over my shoulder.

This was only the beginning, and the Alpha had only made things easier for me.

I turned around, swaying my hips. I walked closer to him, placing a hand on his shoulder, while slowly bringing it down.

"It will be a pleasure, Alpha Caspian, to be your mistress. I mean, what more can I do than say yes to you? I owe you my life for saving me. This is the least I could do to show my gratitude," I responded, smiling seductively.

He pulled me closer to him, closing in the space between us.

"That sounds good. I demand your presence here tomorrow morning," he said, releasing me from his grip.

I nodded, and bowed down, walking out of his chamber.

As soon as I left the palace, I jumped up in excitement at how I easily swayed the alpha.

He was known to be cold and aloof, which made me draft out a plan B, should my first plan not work out.

Little did I know that it would take just a short time to get him.

"I am pretty sure Inara and Niko would not know what hit them!" I said, letting out a sinister laughter.

The next day, I took a basket of fruits for the Alpha to impress him more. Of course, I needed to be a little bit extra. Just because he accepted me didn't mean I should let my guard down.

"Good morning, Miss," the guards greeted me, bowing their heads.

I smiled, holding my dress, "good morning."

They gave way for me to pass, and I walked in confidently as though I owned the palace.

"Good morning, Alpha," I greeted, bending my knee.

"You are quite early," he said to me, placing his hand on my shoulder.

"Well, I didn't want you to miss me too much," I responded, earning a chuckle from him.

"Here, I brought you some fresh fruits," I added, presenting the basket to him.

"Oh, wow! Such a caring and considerate young woman you are," he commended, beckoning on one of the maids.

"Take this basket to my chamber. " He ordered.

I say beside him, massaging his feet. He closed his eyes, resting his head on the chair.

As my eyes roamed around the throne room, I caught a glimpse of Niko coming out of his room.

"Wait for me here, I have something for you," Alpha Caspian said to me.

I nodded and relaxed on Luna's seat. Of course, it belonged to me.

"What the hell are you doing on that seat? What are you even doing in the throne room?" Niko asked, rushing to take me off from the seat.

I shoved him away, glaring at him.

"What do you mean? Show some respect, you ungrateful betrayer! This seat belongs to me!"

He laughed, "Are you daft? That seat belongs to Luna, and that means, it is Inara's right to sit on that seat, once I am crowned Alpha," he replied.

I could not help but laugh out loud, as he stared at me in confusion.

"And who said it is Inara's right to sit here? That can happen when you become the alpha, but now that Alpha Caspian is still alive, I have full right to sit here as his mistress!" I said, revealing my relationship with the alpha to him.

He looked surprised, as I told him that. He stumbled backward, shaking his head in disagreement.

"No, that is not possible! You cannot be the alpha's mistress. A naive she-wolf cannot be the alpha's mistress. No one in this kingdom would even glance twice at you, let alone the Alpha!" He sneered, feeling confident about his fact.

I didn't need to say much. I saw the alpha approaching us, and I decided to allow him to tell Niko the situation.

"I am the Alpha's mistress, and there is nothing you can do about it. As his mistress, I have equal rights to pass out orders. If you still doubt my claim, you can ask the Alpha himself," I said with a mischievous smile.

He turned around, "Father, is this true? Is she really your mistress?"

"Yes, she is. You must respect her, because whatever she says stands, and her opinion and decision matter. If I were you, I would be careful, so as not to offend her, " the alpha voiced out beyond my expectations.

He fumed in anger, and launched at me, grabbing my arm.

"What did you do, you b***h? How could you be his mistress? How—"

"That's enough, Niko! Apologize to her," the alpha said.

He looked at me, and then, at the alpha, who insisted that he apologized.

"Don't worry, Alpha Caspian. I'm sure Niko didn't mean to do that. He was only shocked. You don't have to worry, he will get over it soon and accept that fact. Please, forgive him," I pleaded on his behalf, giving Niko a wry smile.

Alpha Caspian calmed down and sat on his throne.

"You are lucky that Syria pleaded on your behalf. You should be thankful to her. "

Niko was so angry that he stormed out of the throne room.

Alpha Caspian turned to me, holding a box in his hand.

"I've been waiting for this day, Syria. For years, I had my eyes on you, and I observed your every activity, up until your breakup with Niko and how they treated you," he confessed, opening the box.

"Take this necklace. It's my gift to you."

He took out the necklace and wore it over my neck.

My heartbeat skipped, as I thought of his confession. Did he like me?

I began to have second thoughts about my plan, but when I recalled the things that I went through because of Niko and Inara, my heart yearned for revenge, and the Alpha was the only person that I could use to get my revenge.

I looked at the alpha with an unknown expression and muttered to myself.

"I'm sorry, Alpha Caspian, but you will be the pawn to take my revenge on Inara and Niko.”
